RE: The ship that refused to die!
They don't make em like that anymore!
(The Ship & The Men)!
Good write-up and description of the incident. Accounts like yours are a great documentary source of information... Now, on the Blockchain.
I Love the Yorktown, she was truly a class act! The Men in their damage control crews preformed Miracles! Ultimately they could NOT keep her afloat, but their battle was EPIC; one to be remembered Forever!
:)It is Ironic that my favorite Carrier was so pivotal in the Battle Of Midway, and the only Carrier I have ever visited was the USS Midway in San Diego!
I almost got on the USS Saratoga once but the base had a threat, and locked down!
